Short term rental in Tblisi?
« on: February 02, 2019, 11:28:19 AM »
Hello all!  Long time lurker, 2nd time poster.

I'm considering going to Tblisi in June with a Russian friend and her 2 boys for a week or 2.  I'm looking for a 2 bedroom flat to rent for that period in a convenient location.  I will be going in blind, so I haven't a clue about what are the best areas to stay (and stay away from), and how much this sort of thing should cost?
I'd appreciate any insight any of you may have.

Thanks in advance!

There is a travel thread about Tbilisi and Georgia written by Maxx. It is in trip reports. He is not as active on RUA presently.

You might want to contact Max. The thread is interesting to read for insight.

2tallBill and I have been, too

first Q - do you want inland and the capital, Tblisi or the Black Sea resorts in June ?

Shoot Maxx a PM, you should see the option to do so now you have 5 posts.
Read a trip report from North Korea >>here<< - Read a trip report from South Korea, China and Hong Kong >>here<<

Look what the American media makes some people believe:

Everything I know about Tblisi is pretty dated. I wrote a TR here

Well, it seems Max is AWOL, so no luck there.  I found something thru airbnb that I hope will work.  I'm trusting them to have the property truly represented in the listing.

I am off to Tblisi, soon... so if you can wait... I will be much more up on it and will post about my trip on here.

We are going to Airbnb and look for a apartments  to rent, as Georgia has now replaced Ukraine as a good  place to meet FSU folk without anyone needing a Visa
